A PERSONAL TRIBUTE TO DAVID KILTIE

David Kiltie, MBE, aka Mr. Maybole, was an extraordinary community servant. He was born in Maybole and lived there faithfully serving the community all his life as attested by his many civic minded colleagues and their many accolades.

David was my good friend and partner in creating this website for Maybole. In the early days of the Internet there were few Scottish towns with a website. I was interested in finding out more about my Scottish family history and David wanted the world to know about the vibrant community life and rich history of Maybole. Over many years David and I exchanged messages and images to document all that was Maybole, past and present. I live in the US and made several wonderful trips to my ancestral town with my family, where David, his family and friends greeted and treated us with the legendary Scottish hospitality.

Words cannot express my gratitude for the years of friendship and collaboration that I enjoyed with this notable of notables, David Kiltie, M.B.E, JP.
